I really don't see how those issues are related. If Dedanaan is moving to a Spring feis they likely felt it was too much to host 2 in the same year ! ie Dec and May just too much work while other schools host nothing ! -- **, 14:00:23 10/06/09 Tue [1]

DeDannans camp was so controversial this year, but I guess they went ahead because it benefits them. -- ,, 21:18:16 10/06/09 Tue [1]

perhaps attendance is low at that time of year and lets face it its a busy time of year and many volunteers would likely have other committments. perhaps a larger school should take the dec date as they would have a greater pool of volunteers ?? -- **, 09:40:37 10/07/09 Wed [1]

why couldnt the Victoria school make the date work before DeD took it last year ? why arent you asking why o'connor is not holding up to their date on Oct 18 ?? -- **, 23:27:50 10/07/09 Wed [1]

Good question, but I think that school is in transition with O' Brien aren't they? and isn't O'Connor more in Europe than Canada these days? disappointed that both of these schools are blowing off the committment. Much more important than the camps. -- ., 12:45:38 10/08/09 Thu [1]

I am not from DeD but here is where I have a problem with your post... DeD is not blowing off a commitment they are just going for a different date. O'Connor Feis is completely gone and wouldnt a merger bring a stronger volunteer force for your Feis. to me camps and Feis are different. the camp was open to everyone if they choose to go (dont go there on affiliation and many schools have workshops and guest teachers etc) and the later feis date affects their dancers too remember ? not just our DDs -- when is your schools feis ?, 13:21:41 10/08/09 Thu [1]

Yes but their new date conflicts with an existing feis and we need the Dec Feis. Don't get it. -- ., 15:23:45 10/08/09 Thu [1]

You're obviously from DeDanann. WHy don't you just clarify why the feis was changed and it's the end of all this. I'm not saying anything about O'C because of last weeks broughaha -- ,, 22:43:58 10/09/09 Fri [1]

Tony's last head count was in the 600 range for entries at his last Vancouver Chirstmas feis. Lucky if you get 350 these days.... popularity is dwindling in Vancouver and revenue. -- ..., 22:18:20 10/10/09 Sat [1]

SO TRUE. And Tony himself was a big draw. But let's face it, the RD days are well and gone. -- ., 15:39:59 10/11/09 Sun [1]
